Abstract
Energy usage increased in tandem with the growth of cloud computing. This proliferation in energy usage has consequently resulted in a humongous increase in the surrounding carbon footprint. Furthermore, the exponential rise of 'data servers' and other infrastructure is driving up energy consumption. As a result, a reduction in energy use will result in a lesser carbon footprint in the surrounding environment. Green-computing in "cloud computing"is the finding and development of energy-saving digital solutions for reducing carbon pollution in the atmosphere. Green Cloud computing intends to accomplish effective processing and computing infrastructure use and reduce energy usage. In this paper, the carbon footprint produced by cloud infrastructures is analyzed and the compelling need for Green cloud computingis suggested. It is critical to ensure that the foreseeable growth of cloud computing is economically sound. © 2022 IEEE.
